Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how righteous encouragement and clear resolve can awaken courage and disciplined energy in others. Ethically, it frames martial ardour not as blind rage but as a response to a trusted ally’s words—channeling emotion into purposeful readiness.
Bhīma, overwhelmed with excitement, trembles and lets out a powerful roar. This reaction is triggered by hearing Arjuna’s prior speech, which fills Bhīma with intense joy and renewed enthusiasm as the conflict draws near.
